Instructions
- Preheat air fryer to 320°F.
- Cut bell peppers in half lengthwise and scrape out seeds (if using small peppers, cut off tops instead).
- Brush peppers with olive oil and place in the air fryer basket. Cook 5-6 minutes.
- While peppers are cooking, brown beef, onion, and garlic in a medium saucepan until no pink remains. Drain fat.
- Add instant rice, Italian seasoning, water, and 1 cup pasta sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 3-4 minutes.
- Scoop the mixture into the peppers and top with remaining sauce. Turn air fryer up to 350°F and cook 8-10 minutes or until heated through and peppers are soft. Top with cheese and cook an additional 1-2 minutes.
Notes
- Leave the stems on the peppers while air frying to make them look pretty.
- If your peppers don't sit flat, use a little bit of bunched up foil to hold them in place.
- If your peppers are small you may need a few extra.
- If you happen to have leftover filling, it's great in tomato soup or stuffed inside zucchini as well.
- To brown the cheese add it a little bit earlier.
